Roses & thorns

A ROSE: To the Kickapoo Cabinet for its outreach to the Glendale community after the loss of two of our flock. It showed great class. Rivals on the field, but still family!

-James Nordine, Glendale High School teacher

A ROSE: To Race Brothers employee Terry Ragsdale for service above expectations in helping us get our weed trimmer and chain saw running again. It was a good example of taking care of the customer. Thanks a lot.

-Dorothy Prugger, Springfield

A THORN: To Todd Akin for not apologizing for using the "wrong words" when he called a "sacred life," i.e.., a "person"... a "thing!" I was shocked he used the phrase, "Shut that whole thing down!" Was he saying it was a "thing," not a life, because the woman's body failed to self-abort? He sounded like Drew Carey on "The Price is Right." "Come on ... shut that whole thing ... down!"
